Joaquin Neighborhood Meeting

This month (Thursday February 28th 7PM) we were not able to book a room at the Provo Library so we are going to meet in the south side lobby of the Library and we are going to take a walk down 500 N (dress warm). I have lots of new news, but the majority will have to be the topic of the March meeting. The biggest news has to do with something I found out from the City Council this week. The newspapers in Provo have carried various stories of parking problems in Joaquin since the 1960's. Over the last year I have tried to piece something together that is trying to address the problems and the diverse needs of all the residents in Joaquin. It is a big issue and hard to tackle. But the short version is that the City Council has realized that many hours, dollars and meetings and city staff have been spent on this subject and it is worth their time to try and help all of us come to some sort of solution.

Please join me Thursday February 28th at 7 PM as we head out on a walking tour (Joaquin tour) down 500 N.

Next Month's Meeting will be Thursday March 8th, 2019 7:00 PM Provo Library

The main subject will be parking, please come this will be a very important meeting with people from the City attending.
